Abstract	This master's thesis covers the translation theory regarding the scientific and technical translation and examines its practices on a real-life example of academic writing. This thesis discusses translation theory/ies regarding translation in general, but it increases its focus later on scientific and technical translation with an aim to contextualise the means of translating scientific and technical texts. In regards to scientific and technical translation, it is important to look at the style and discourse, purpose, and target readers of this type of translation. In the practical part of the following chapters, we analyse the source text’s structure and language, which will be of benefit for the next chapter where the translation problems are analysed and multiple solutions are proposed. The aim of the practical part of this master's thesis is to test some of the theories that translation studies proposes to aid scientific and technical translation.
Abstract (croatian)	Ovaj diplomski rad bavi se teorijom znanstvenog i tehničkog prevođenja te ispituje praksu teorije na stvarnom primjeru znanstvenog rada. Ovaj rad raspravlja o znanosti o prevođenju općenito, ali kasnije skreće jaču pažnju znanstvenom i tehničkom prevođenju kako bi se kontekstualiziralo načine prevođenja znanstvenih i tehničkih tekstova. U kontekstu znanstvenog i tehničkog prevođenja važno je razmotriti stil i jezik, cilj i potencijalnu publiku ove grane prevođenja. Praktični dio ovog rada analizira strukturu i jezik izvornog teksta, što je od velike koristi za dio rada koji analizira prijevodne probleme i predlaže različita prijevodna rješenja. Cilj ovog dijela rada je testirati teorije znanosti o prevođenju koje nude pomoć pri znanstvenom i tehničkom prevođenju.
